As they pursue legal costs, Seven’s lawyers told the court this morning that the former employee boasted about orchestrating a “vindictive” and “arrogant” media campaign to embarrass Worner about their affair in emails to a co-worker, according to Fairfax.

“I want to kill him. It will make Nova look like a turkey slap,” Harrison wrote in an email.

The Nova incident that Harrison was referring to was a “multi-platform” revenge campaign that she waged previously against a Nova executive who had “f*$#ed [her] over”.

“I splashed it across the papers for three weeks,” Harrison wrote in another email.

Seven’s QC, Dr Andrew Bell told the court: “We have a defendant here, regrettably, who is completely and utterly reckless with regard to other people … and who has used now, in at least two instances, contacts in the media to humiliate and embarrass people.”
